Ash-Slag Waste of the Coal-Fired Thermal Power Plant as a Resource for the Construction Industry

Abstract

The article presents a study of the physical and technical properties of ash and slag waste Coal Power Plant. The main problem when using ash-slag mixtures is the variability of the particle size distribution of the material. Determining the characteristics of slag stored in the dumps of thermal power plants will help to choose the separation methods of this material, to address the disposal and accumulation of industrial waste, to expand the scope of their application. The obtained research results of physical and technical properties of waste of the Coal TPP testify to wide potential in the further use in many branches of the industry. Possible applications include fillers for concrete, materials for sandblasting (abrasive material), raw materials for the metallurgical industry, additives for the manufacture of binders, etc.
